So careless!

First nursing exam of the semester and made the stupidest mistake. So long story short my school gives you the test, it is a few sheets of paper all multiple choice and you record your answers on the scantron. I like to answer on the test then put them onto the scantron once I am done, it's easier to see my mistakes when the teacher goes over the test later. So I filled out my scantron wrong ! Even though I doubled checked them once I was done. I am so mad at myself, not the entire test though thank goodness. Has anyone else done something this stupid? Ugh I'm kicking myself right now.

It's really best practice to just put them on the scantron. I had another friend who would skip one when transferring her answers from test to answer sheet. Every answer after the one she skipped was wrong. It took her three times to learn her lesson and just put them on the scantron to begin with. She had to repeat Fundamentals.

Ok, that's the very definition of slow learner, lol. Well, better late than never I guess.

OP, that's an ouch for sure. But now you will probably be the last one to turn in your test every time because you will be so paranoid about that.

Good luck. You will be fine.
